# MFA should be enabled for all users

> Checks that every Turso organization member has multi-factor authentication enabled.

## What this check does

DSALTA lists the members of your Turso organization (`GET /v1/organizations/{slug}/members`) and reads each member's MFA flag. Any member whose flag is not set fails the check, and members for whom Turso reports no value count as not enabled rather than being skipped. The result also records whether the organization itself requires MFA, for context.

<Note>
  This check also runs on 19 other integrations — see [MFA should be enabled for all users](/tests/mfa-should-be-enabled-for-all-users) for the full list.

**Passes when:** Every Turso organization member has MFA (multi-factor authentication) enabled.

<Info>
  This check reads the live member list on every run, not the Access page. If Turso returns no members at all, the run ends in an error rather than a pass, so a broken token is never mistaken for full MFA coverage.

## Why this matters

Every account on the organization's database platform must be protected with multi-factor authentication. A Turso member can create database tokens and read data, so a password alone on any member is a direct path to production data.

## How to fix

**Require MFA in Turso**

1. Sign in to [app.turso.tech](https://app.turso.tech) as an organization **owner** or **admin**.
2. Open the organization's **Settings** and turn on the option that requires MFA for the organization, so members without it are made to enrol.
3. Ask each flagged member to enrol now: in their own **Settings**, under **Security**, they enable multi-factor authentication.
4. List the members again — in the dashboard, or with `turso org members list` in the Turso CLI — and confirm no one is still reported without MFA.
5. Remove any member who will not enrol and no longer needs Turso access.

Once resolved, DSALTA records a **200** (compliant) result on this test's **Source Data** tab at the next scheduled run.

## Frequently asked questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How often does this check run?">
    Once a day, at 02:00 America/New\_York, while the integration is connected. A run is skipped entirely if the integration is not in a **connected** state, or if the test has been deactivated.

    To see a fix reflected sooner, open the test from **Compliance → Tests** and click **Run** in the **Run Test** row. You need Full Access to run a test on demand.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What does the status actually tell me?">
    The **Status** column answers "did the check run?", not "did I pass". **Completed** means DSALTA reached your system and finished evaluating — a check that ran and *found a problem* is still Completed.

    To see what it found, open the test and read the result code on the **Source Data** tab. **200** means nothing to fix; **204** means the check did not apply to your environment; **207** means it ran and found a compliance gap you need to act on. See [Understanding test results](/guides/compliance/test-results).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The check shows Failed. Does that mean I am non-compliant?">
    Usually not. On an integration-powered check, **Failed** means DSALTA was *blocked* and could not evaluate it — result code **403** (a missing permission) or **428** (a setting DSALTA still needs from you). Code **500** means the run failed on DSALTA's side.

    A genuine compliance gap does not turn the list red — it runs to completion and shows **207**.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What if this check does not apply to us?">
    Deactivate it: open the test from **Compliance → Tests**, then use the **⋮** menu at the top right of the panel and choose **Deactivate Test**. It applies immediately, with no confirmation step.

    Write your justification in the **Comments** tab **before** you deactivate. Once deactivated, every other tab is grayed out, so Comments is the only place an auditor can read why — see [Test detail](/guides/compliance/test-detail).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Does DSALTA change my configuration?">
    No. DSALTA only reads. It never creates, modifies, or deletes resources, and every remediation step is performed by your team directly in the third-party product.
